REVIEW ~LUCAS BY SAWYER BENNETT~

Title: Lucas

Author: Sawyer Bennett

Series: Cold Fury #8

Release Date: September 19, 2017

MY RATING: 5 STARS!

The Carolina Cold Fury hockey team is stacked with hotshots. But when a new player joins their ranks, he learns that even superstars can’t go it alone when it comes to love.

Lucas Fournier is only serious about one thing: hockey. The league’s fun-loving charmer, Luc is always up for a good prank or a great lay, and he has no intention of settling down. But being traded to the Carolina Cold Fury—and to play alongside his big brother, Max—is no joke. With another title in sight, the last thing Luc wants is to let his new teammates down. To succeed, Luc will need to keep his head in the game and the most . . . er, demanding member of his anatomy in check. But when temptation hits, Luc hits back harder.

Museum curator Stephanie Frazier has always put business before pleasure, which just about explains her nonexistent sex life. But when Stephanie meets Luc at a champagne-fueled gala, she finds herself flirting like crazy—and going home with the uninhibited athlete. For one night, she learns what passion is all about. She just never counted on the little surprise Luc leaves behind. And that’s when things really start to get . . . interesting.

THIS BOOK!!! Gah! This book is Sawyer Bennett at her absolute finest. Luc and Stephy are hands down a perfect storm. An erotic, tumultuous, lovely storm. This book is raw. So raw thanks so Luc and Stephy's flaws, but it makes them so damn relatable. And these two are as hot in their physical attraction as they are with their emotions. They're volatile. And when the tensions rise they throw the very insults to the weaknesses they see in themselves. It's what makes this story so good and heart-wrenching. They know each other too well, they fit together almost too perfectly. They know exactly what to say that hurts the most. But in the end this book offers a perfectly crafted HEA for these two strong, yet love-thirsty, individuals. LUCAS is a wonderful read. Each and every single one of the Cold Fury books has stolen my breath, but this one may have edged its way to the top. 

Happy Reading!
